On one fine evening about two weeks ago I strolled through my city’s shopping district. Halloween had faded away. With it’s passing, another holiday arrived on the scene. Lights were strung on every roof and tree. Painted reindeer dwelt in every grove. Wreaths adorned every door. Yes, Santa Claus had come to town.

Except… I could have sworn November had its own holiday…something to do with turkeys and dinner and giving thanks.
